Hey Meganator,
If smell is the main problem, you should really try out a crystal deodorant stone. Most people have never heard of this, but it's something you can get online.
You see, the odor is caused by waste products of bacteria living on your body and this stone when rubbed on your underarms works to kill off the bacteria and thus prevent them from creating that horrible smell.
Just do a search online for "Crystal Deodorant Stone" or "Crystal Deodorant Stick" and you should find it.
It's pretty inexpensive and lasts a LONG time.
All you do is wet your underarms a bit then rub the stone on like you would a normal antiperspirant and you're good to go.
You'll also want to look into managing your sweating condition, which BTW, the name for it is Hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating), here are some tips for that:
1. Stop drinking coffee - coffee is loaded with caffeine and sugar, both of which are stimulants which increase anxiety and thus sweating.
2. Use sweat pads - Sweat pads are a great alternative to wearing extra layers or sweaters...you can find them online...they are adhesive absorbent pads that you can stick to the insides of your shirts so that they absorb your sweat.
3. Sage Tea - Take a tablespoon of sage leaves and steep it in a cup of boiled water for less than 10 minuets. Strain the leaves , add a slice of lime to the tea and drink it. Don't brew longer than 10 min though, it can be toxic if over brewed!
That all will get you started, there is more info at the site below if you need it.
**** luck,

have you shaved your armpits.?
the hair retains the odor and is an obstacle for the deodorant/antiperspirant to reach the skin...
bring an extra t-shirt and/or shirt to school with you to change into if it gets bad.
also try different brands of deodorant/antiperspirant because your body becomes immune to what your using over time and is less effective
good luck!
